IPL 2024: Ian Bishop Apologises For Taking A Dig On Virat Kohli In Commentary – The match between Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore was quite an interesting one. The captain of RR, Sanju Samson, decided to field after winning the toss. RCB’s lineup didn’t quite hit their stride. However, Virat Kohli managed to find his rhythm at the crease. In the IPL 2024, Kohli smashed his first century and scored an impressive 113 runs off just 72 balls. His innings was filled with 12 boundaries and 4 maximums. However, he had a strike rate of 156.94 which was a bit of concern after playing so many deliveries.

RR had a bit of a rough start when they lost Yashasvi Jaiswal in the very first over. However, they quickly regrouped and managed to secure a well-deserved victory. Jos Butler played an outstanding innings. He smashed 100 runs from just 58 deliveries, while Sanju Samson contributed with a solid 69 off 42 balls. The duo led RR to a well-deserved victory. The match ended with RR clinching a convincing victory by 6 wickets and 5 balls to spare. They have now kept their unbeaten record intact in IPL 2024.

Meanwhile, RCB faced yet another loss in their fifth match of this season’s IPL. This was their fourth defeat so far. Even though Kohli managed to score a century, RCB’s failure to form partnerships ultimately led to their loss in the match. They now have plenty to ponder about in the current tournament.

In IPL 2024, Kohli’s run tally has been impressive. However, he has faced criticism for his strike rate. In this specific game, he faced increasing criticism for his slow start. Kohli notched up his fifty in just 39 balls and then picked up the pace. Virat managed to score 113 runs off 72 deliveries.

While providing commentary, Ian Bishop mentioned Kohli’s relatively slow start to the inning. He pointed out to his fifty off 39 balls. This comment seemed to imply that Kohli’s pacing could use some improvement. But, Bishop decided to address the issue on Twitter and admit his mistake. He said sorry to a fan and admitted that he was wrong with his choice of word. Bishop acknowledged the importance of understanding T20 batting strategies and admitted to using imprecise language. He promised to work on his language and adjust to the requirements of the game format in upcoming matches.

I take an “L” on that one. I am very aware of what T20 batting entails, and my insertion of that word was inaccurate. My choice of words and language in keeping with the format of the game needs to be more accurate and it will be going forward. Apologies.
